This hands-on, exhilarating one-day workshop will give you a solid grounding in how to turn your research into compelling fiction and avoid the dreaded ‘infodump’. This workshop will run again in November.
You will explore research approaches, world building, character, dialogue and letting go. Complete practical exercises, discuss and share your work with peers, and build community, skills and confidence.
This workshop is suitable for anyone who wants to turn their research into fiction.
